Data Science Capstone Project Unit - ITEC877

This unit draws together learning in previous units into a practice-based, workplace relevant project. Students will carry out a major data analysis project making use of real-world data to provide insight into significant problems. Problems may be suggested by students, by employers or industry partners or by academic staff. All projects will involve analysis of large data sets using the techniques learned in the earlier units in the program. Students will present results in a professional manner and will manage source code and data in a way that enables and encourages reproduction of the analysis by others. The project requires an equal focus on process and the product, requiring the use of quality control and assurance methods, tools and techniques.
